Hidden Head Unit Alternative

[alocker]

I shut all the doors and stuck my arm in the trunk and closed the lid as far as I could (sorry, I'm not letting anyone lock me in the trunk as that always turns into a game fun for the other person).

It works fine. No delay or slowness. Works on the outside of the car also. Keep in mind if you are playing music from your phone you could have issues, but since these are single commands via Bluetooth, I'm guessing the range is going to be pretty good.

I will also say the sound is not bad either. I have cheapo Kendwood 2 way 6x9's in the rear and Autosound 3.5's up front. It gets plenty loud and you can adjust the eq modes from the phone along with a 2 user eq setting customized with a 5 band eq. In addition, there is a bass boost mode that had a min to max slider along with a 3 mode "loud" setting for OFF, Level 1, Level 2 which is nice. The higher end units have 3 sets of 4.5v preouts if someone is looking to build a SQ or db system with amps.

A few other features is light weight. I opted for no CD player so this things weighs about a pound. It easily mounted to the cardboard glove box structure. The CD player is $30 extra but I really didn't see a need.
